Classes: Heresiarch

The Heresiarch is a powerful sorcerer with a wide range of attacks and defenses. It has four different attacks, which are seleted mostly at random when it casts a spell:

• Two bouncing lava heads that follow the player like a seeker missile.
• Total invulnerability and missile reflection, that lasts for a long time and makes the game irritating to play. This defense has a visual indicator, in the form of two orbs that encircle the Heresiarch and leave a trail behind him.
• A summoning projectile, that spawns a dark bishop where it lands.
• A wide cone of purple fireballs that spew out rapidly in a whiplash pattern.

It also has three different floating cubes over its head, which spin rapidly when it is charging a spell. These cubes break away when it is killed, bouncing around and eventually exploding violently.
